Minors and stocks

So I’m looking it getting into the stock market however my parents won’t let me open a brokerage account, I’m 16 and I want to get in. Is there any way I could get one or join a program that could let me do it. It would have to be all me no adults involved anything would help thanks in advance.

If you’re doing it for the right reasons, then I’m sure you can put forward a presentation that convinces them. My dad dropped 1k in an account for me and my brother when we were 10, and if 2008 didn’t happen, we would have been set up even more than we were.

So: convince them you won’t be trading. Convince them you will drop 1k of your OWN money in it and let it sit until you’re retired.

Convince them that this is not to get rich quick, but rather to build the habit of setting money aside rather than splurging on the latest iPhone.
